Thanks, but I still am quite curious to see what you'd like to do. Go ahead. :-)

And since nobody has welcomed you… --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 20:47, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Could you please explain why the link I added, which appears first on Google for searches for "Order of the Phoenix movie" and is, actually, up-to-date, is considered vandalism? Brethenbrother181 15:32, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * As it says on their cast page, "Warner Bros. has confirmed that all actors listed on this page will appear in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix." Yes, there have been other casting rumors, but only the actors who Warner Bros. have said will appear in the movie are listed there.  I really don't see why this link is considered nonsense or vandalism. -- Brethenbrother181 15:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, there is. The link is here; it appears after "Release Dates" and before "Order of the Phoenix Pictures" on this page. -- Brethenbrother181 15:43, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * As I said, they only add cast members to their list after Warner Bros. confirms them, and although it's very likely Gambon, Smith, and Bradley will return, WB hasn't actually published that in a press release yet or independently confirmed it to anyone. -- Brethenbrother181 15:48, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Would you be able to link me to the specific posts on The Leaky Cauldron, MuggleNet, and Harry Potter Fan Zone in which they say that Warner Bros. directly confirmed to them that Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, and David Bradley will return for the fifth movie? I just looked on all three websites and could not find these posts.  Also, MuggleNet and Harry Potter Fan Zone do not even have Maggie Smith and David Bradley listed on their confirmed cast lists, so if Warner Bros. did send them this information, they did not  add it to their cast lists, so if your standard for external links is having these three cast members listed, why are Harry Potter Fan Zone and HPANA included?  HPANA does not have a news report confirming these three actors' return, simply because Warner Bros. has not yet announced this. And in any case, even if Warner Bros. had announced this, and even if the other websites listed had those cast members included on their pages, how is that a viable reason to not include another link?  Were a site reporting a cast member who was not actually in the film, that would be misinformation and a good reason not to include the link, but simply because a site doesn't include every cast member who you think has been confirmed for the movie is really not a very good reason to remove the link, and it certainly doesn't make the site "nonsense." But that is not the case, Warner Bros. has not confirmed these actors' returns, and the other websites do not even list these actors as confirmed. It seems to me as though you are being far too picky and looking for the slightest of reasons - even if they are baseless - to remove certain links from this page. -- Brethenbrother181 21:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * None of that information came directly from Warner Bros., and although it may be correct, there is not a problem with Veritaserum not putting it on their cast list until Warner Bros. themselves confirm it. This is a good way to make sure that there aren't any doubts about any of the cast members listed, and also helps avoid having any misinformation on the page (e.g. when the Sirius Black rumors continually went back and forth over whether or not he'd be in the film.) That is no reason not to include a link to Veritaserum on the Wikipedia page for the movie, and it doesn't make the information there any less accurate either.  And in any case, as I mentioned above, both Harry Potter Fan Zone and HPANA do not have all of those actors listed either, so what, in your eyes, justifies their listing? --Brethenbrother181 01:58, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Then by the same token, why should Harry Potter Fan Zone and HPANA be listed when they do not have all of the actors you've mentioned in their confirmed cast lists either? -- --Brethenbrother181 18:55, 7 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Hello? --Brethenbrother181 18:20, 18 July 2006 (UTC)


 * You hadn't yet responded to my message left on 18:55, 7 July 2006, which is why I was seeing if you were still around. --208.190.253.118 04:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Alright, so now tell me, what about Veritaserum's book 7 section is so horrendous that caused you to remove the link from that section as well? This is just getting ridiculous. You cannot just go through all of Wikipedia removing relevant links to a website because you aren't a fan of it. --208.190.253.118 20:31, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

User page
That would be your user page. At the top of this page, there should be a number of tabs. Click the red one which says "user page." Then you'll be asked if you really want to make the page and stuff, and say you do, and then you can edit away! BTW, I am considering a separate section on the cast page for younger versions, but we'll see, as some are more important than others (Christian Coulson in CoS, for example). --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 20:54, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Sure, you can take it just from my user page, but it should also be on the Wiki Project page itself. It's . --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 20:57, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Looks great! I see you figured out the userboxes… For one I would make the picture of the tree much smaller and more apparent, but other than that it's quite a good start! --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 21:41, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

HP cast
Hmm, that's not a bad idea. The Nick Shim page was recently AFD'd and I've been wanting to get it back, that annoyed me a lot as I was on wikibreak when that occured. So, I'd hold off until we see if we can recreate the page. Thanks! --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 17:21, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I have an email, but it's all right, I don't really need to see what the article said. I would suggest taking such articles like Jennifer Smith (actress), Emily Dale, Helen Stuart, Gemma Padley, etc. Go down the line of that HP cast page and you'll find loads. If you'd like help I'm happy to assist. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 21:27, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I remember. A Wikipedia user claimed she went to school with him, and that his name was really Shirm. I suppose there's not much to it, just say he's playing Zacharias Smith and that's about it. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 21:46, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't worry about it. It's just a draft page. When you create the article, just make sure it's got the lower case A's. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 22:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Check out Esperanza/Members. But, you have to have been here for two weeks. There is a place though where you can say you would like to join but do not yet meet the requirements. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 22:16, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Name is in the right space. And no, to renovate user pages see WP:UPH. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 02:46, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

If you think it's good, let's move the draft into the main namespace. I'm happy to just move the draft page since you don't have that privilege yet, I think. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 02:58, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Oh yes, Dudley's gang. I'll get those in. I don't think the marauders shohuld be added in, they will have a part sufficient enough that they deserve a full page. It's really the actors who barely appeared at all (like the Quidditch players, who I didn't know even existed) who should belong there. Hopefully, once OoP comes out, Nick Shim can get his own page. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 19:50, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm not so sure about Richard Fish or Alex Crawford (Bill and Charlie). They seem to be known for other stuff too. If you think so, you can move them. For now, I'm going to move the page to the main namespace! Yay! --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 20:02, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Next thing we have to do is fix all the redirects. See here. i.e. everything that links to Genevieve Gaunt should now link to Minor actors and actresses in Harry Potter#Genevieve Gaunt. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 20:21, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I guess you're talking about this edit. I don't know how that happened. I think it was an edit conflict: I was adding Jason Boyd while you were adding the Saunders triplets, and I accidentally took it out without knowing. Sorry about that one. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 00:54, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Hello
I noticed you don't edit much. When is your wikibreak over where you'll back to editing more? Treebark 16:32, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * hey there... thanks for asking. I'm not sure to be honest, I've not got much free time at the moment, and aren't contributing anywhere near as much as I have in the past. I still browse through my Watchlist and make occasional edits when I can, though. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 16:45, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * O.K. Your a great contributor and a great admin so don't stop editing all together!
 * Thank you! I have no plans to disappear completely... it's just that other things take precedent. I'm still around when I get the chance, though, feel free to leave a message if I can ever help you at all... └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 16:50, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Uh....Jason Piper. First, why don't you join the Harry Potter wikiproject since you edit some of the pages? It's already been annouced that Jason Piper is playing Bane so we don't really need a citation there. Treebark 17:03, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I have no desire to join the HP wikiproject... I edit some HP-related articles, but am not sufficiently interested in that area that I feel inclined to join the project. Per our policy (WP:CITE) we need to cite sources! Has it been announced that Jason Piper is playing Bane? If it has, we need a citation to back that claim up. I know the source we've got isn't ideal, but it's better than nothing. All information needs to be verifiable, we cannot claim that he has been cast, without a verifiable source to back that claim up. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 18:28, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, it has been annouced Piper's playing Bane. BUT, Wikipedia is not a place to fool around and list sources that are wrong. For instance, an elephant named Ken in Africa is 7 feet long with a citation of Bane, playing Jason Piper in the Harry Potter movies is not O.K. We need correct citations, and until we can source statements correctly, we shouldn't have a statement at all. The source saying Potter Exclusive: New Bellatrix mentions nothing at all about him filming his roll in London. I'm going to cite it now correctly or we shouldn't have a source there at all. Treebark 18:42, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Of course. It doesn't mention London, I agree, but it did say Actor Jason Piper has also been cast in the part of the Bane the Centaur which is better than nothing. Of course, if you know of a better source, feel free. I can't see how which you've cited even mentions Piper, however. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 19:05, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah it doesn't say anything about Piper. Bane is a centuar and it says the centuars role has been filmed meaning Piper has already filmed his role in London. The other source says Piper has been cast, it's O.K for the article but only in a different spot like the way you put it, in your recent edit to Jason Piper. See ya. Treebark 19:10, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Let's leave both refs in then, and the info is all verifiable └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 19:12, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * O.K. Can you tell Forest to leave them alone? He seemed bother by it earlier. I do think however that the one saying Bane has been casted should be removed in several months, because after 2007 everybody will know Jason Piper played Bane. Otherwise, until the trailer comes out for the Order of the Phoenix, we shouldn't touch the references. Mind telling Forest? Treebark 19:16, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Of course, once the film has been released, a citation saying that Bane has been cast will be made outdated. This is not yet the case, however. I've told Forest my opinions of the need for citations previously, and will of course do so again should the need arise. I trust that we can all just leave them in place for the time being, since they don't detract from the article, and do add to it's verifiability. Of course, expanding the article with further information would also be good. └ UkPaolo/talk┐ 19:21, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Warning on User:Daniel5127's page
That warning seems to have been misplaced, as there was no blanking. In fact, his version is significantly longer and better written than the one you reverted to. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 21:03, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Ah ok. See what happens when people don't use edit summaries? --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 21:42, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I disagree. According to WP:VAND, a "good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism." Do what you will. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 21:47, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
 * No, it was not vandalism. More likely, Daniel5127 and Xaosflux mistook Raditzu's shortening for vandalism (blanking) and reverted in good faith. And I do not appreciate having my good faith reversions called vandalism either. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 01:40, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid I still don't understand your position. I have made it very clear that Daniel5127, Xaosflux, and my edits were not, are not, and never will be vandalism, but you persist in warning Daniel for removing the notice from his talkpage. Please reply on my talk page. Thanks. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 18:09, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
 * You say you have made your point, which I'm assuming is that Daniel5127 conducted vandalism. However, I'm not convinced. Could you please explain how his edits were vandalism? I believe that not checking the talk page before reverting falls under "misguided" attempts to help Wikipedia. I don't remember how I got my username, but it wasn't 2004 when I came up with it; I know it was 2003. The specific mission is the ongoing Spirit and Opportunity mission. --M1ss1ontom a rs2k4 (T 18:17, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Formatting on HP cast
The reason is because the section that you were editing (Principal Characters) is embedded within the table; therefore, it does not have the formatting that opens and closes the table. You need the entire article to make the table appear in the preview function, because that section is not the only one contributing to the table. So, if you're unsure of something when you edit the page, best to edit the whole page by click "edit this page" at the top, rather than editing the section. But if you don't mind making lots of edits if you screw up the formatting, then you should edit the section. I'll go make what you requested now. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 23:51, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

PA Differences
If you press "last change" when you get new messages, the alert doesn't go away. You have to actually visit your talk page, not just your history. Other than I can't help.

As for PA differences, that was a project I started just before I took a two week vacation in the middle of June, and since then I have been preoccupied during the day basically from 9-7. So, I haven't had the time to go places with it. I am quite methodical in the way I approach this, as I also created the pages of differences between PS, CS, and OoP, and tremendously revised the GOF differences page, so when I get the time (hopefully tomorrow, as it's Sunday!), I hope to sit down with it and go about its work. And please, don't put any tags on it, that's why it's a draft page – it's supposed to be expanded. If it were moved to main namespace as it appears now, it would probably be tagged a million times if it weren't mulched right away by Speedy Deletion, or at least AfD. Off to dinner but I hope to work on it. Thanks for your input too. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 00:06, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

You go to "my preferences", uncheck "Raw signature", and then do whatever you want with it. Have fun experimenting! See WP:SIG. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 02:21, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

I like that sig a lot, especially the red parentheses. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 15:46, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

WP:RFA. But it's best if you've been around a while, and accumulated some more edits. But, you're welcome to go and support or oppose current candidates there. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 16:59, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

BTW, minor things like the difference of Dementors' movement, or the nature of Hermione's pain inflicted upon Malfoy, aren't really necessary. I know that they're currently listed in the Alterations from the film section on the POA film page, but that's because some fans just try to list every minute change. For the Differences page, just go with the things which are worthy of being noted. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 17:07, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

Treebark, I noticed you were removing differences from the PoA film page as you transferred them to the PoA differences page. As that page has not yet been created, do not continue to do this. Technically you are removing content from pages, and not putting them in the main namespace, so it could be considered as vandalism by some. If you're unsure if something's already been moved, you can always check. If you like, you can copy everything in the alterations section to a subpage of your userspace and gradually cross them off there, but do not remove anything from the "Alterations from the Book" section until we take away all of them at one time, when we finish the PoA differences page. Thanks! --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 00:44, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, it's just you and me on that page. Sometimes Forest chips in, but he's on vacation. :-) Thanks for the thoughts though. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 21:45, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * User:ForestH2. I figured you would know him by the discussion ensuing at, just above, where you talked to UkPaolo about him. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 23:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, "Forest" is easier than "ForestH2." He claimed he had left Wikipedia, but then he returned. Right now he's on vacation. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 01:05, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Thought you'd like to know that the page Differences between book and film versions of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is now live in the main namespace! Hooray! Only thing is the Deleted scenes section is a stub, because I don't own the DVD to the film and thus can't view them. If you do own the DVD, please clean up the section! Otherwise, I'll go rent it. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 04:28, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

Delivering the Signpost
Could you please sign the Signpost deliveries? It will allow the automatic talk page archivers to correctly work; without the timestamp, it doesn't know the date it was posted, and thus cannot archive it properly. The Signpost delivery is already rather large, a simple --~ at the end of it won't make it too much larger. -- Cyde↔Weys 02:33, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Sorry I was away from a computer and wasn't able to jump in, so thanks for helping out. --Michael Snow 03:58, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm back... is my help still required? - RoyBoy 800 04:08, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Coo. Yeah, and its gonna get longer as I've decided to take an archive snapshot only once a year. I might eventually change my mind and do once a season, but once per year can also give me a good idea how involved I've been with Wikipedia that year by how long my talk is. - RoyBoy 800 14:55, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Technically I will link to it in January, but it will include every section started with a 2006 timestamp, so up to December and perhaps some January responses. Most people create a sub article and move their talk there, but I don't see a need to burden Wikipedia with that if a History snapshot will do. Archive pages also open up more pages for vandals to vandalize, which was a concern for me when I was a hardcore anti-vandal patroller. - RoyBoy 800 15:12, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Your edits to December 3
I notice that you recently reverted AgentPeppermint's edits to December 3, with an edit summary of "rvv." Upon looking at the edits Agent Peppermint made, I don't think they are vandalism at all - in fact, they are helpful contributions. The policy on Wikicalendar pages is not to double link years (i.e. if two 1973 births are listed on a page, the first year is linked, the second is not, with the idea that if a visitor wants to visit 1973, he or she will easily see one link and does not need more than that). Also, to follow the format of the rest of the entries, the person's description/occupation is not capitalized if not a formal noun, and extraneous details such as "female" are omitted as that info is easily accessible at the person's article. Let me know if you have any questions. Fabricationary 16:48, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

IMDb
See discussion beginning here. IMDb is similar to Wikipedia in that it is edited publicly; however, editors do not offer sources. When the powers that be at IMDb approve something that is reported for a not yet released film, they have no way of knowing whether the contribution is true or not; they must go by the amount of times that they receive the notice. That is to say, suppose 500 people, or one person on 500 different accounts, submits the fact that a new actor named John Smith will play the role of Cornelius Fudge, overtaking Robert Hardy from the previous three films. Now, suddenly I find out that Robert Hardy actually is reprising his role. If only I submit this, but 500 people note that it's John Smith, John Smith will prevail. Since the trivia seems a bit ludicrous – that a carpet in Umbridge's office cost £50,000 – I removed the info. Sure, it may be true, but IMDb is no valid source at the moment, because the source from which it takes its information is the general public. I hope that makes sense. IMDb is a wonderfully accurate source for films which ahve already been released, because cast and crew info can be found in the credits, but as for future films, it, quite frankly, sucks. :-) Note that it reported Christian Coulson as "in negotiations" for HBP film, and Rupert Grint as confirmed, when casting for that film hasn't even started yet. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 19:13, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Not a problem, don't worry about it. Go ahead and use it for old films, and once OoP is released, we can get rid of all those dratted casting announcements and just use IMDb (won't that be fun?). But yes, HBP casting probably won't begin until, at EARLIEST, the end of this year. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 19:19, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Please, let me know which old news stories these are. Don't forget, some of them may have been updated since then, such as the whole deal with Gary Oldman returning back in February/March. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 21:28, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Signpost
Hello! I appreciate your efforts in helping the Signpost; however, I've left a note for you here. I really do appreciate and acknowledge your help and enthusiasm, but when I say I'll do an article, please don't remove the comment and then start it yourself. While I do thank you for the help, in the future I would prefer you not do so. Thanks for your understanding! Flcelloguy (A note? ) 23:36, 16 July 2006 (UTC)


 * That page has not been updated for quite a while; I've been helping out for a long time and covering News and Notes for pretty much since the last ArbCom elections. While I've been busy lately, I've had more time now to return to Wikipedia. I appreciate the help, but usually when someone says that they will cover an article, you shouldn't remove the comment and then start the article - this just duplicates work and effort. I've got News and notes covered; if you wish to help, talk to either Ral315 or Michael Snow for any open regular beats. As always, though, we do appreciate "special" stories. Again, you should talk to either one of those before starting to make sure that the item is okay and acceptable. Thanks again. Flcelloguy (A note? ) 23:45, 16 July 2006 (UTC)


 * As I said, that page has not been updated in a while - to be exact, that part was added last November, when I was covering the ArbCom elections and before I started doing News and Notes. Again, I appreciate the help, but please don't just remove a comment from the Newsroom that I left saying that I would cover it and then start the article yourself. Thank you.

Leaky
I would guess Leaky doesn't include sources as they themselves are sources -- they report the news. IMDb doesn't include sources because it takes the information, for the most part, from (as I've said previously) already released films, and thus the information is set in stone, in the credits. People usually, don't visit IMDb for upcoming films, because hype over the cast of upcoming films is nowhere near as great as HP. For example, what looks like an utterly sick horror film Snakes on a Plane is to be released this August, and I was curious about it back in March or so because my teacher mentioned it in class. I had no interest to see who was in it, but interested to know the premise. People really care about Harry Potter since it's just that big a deal. I hope that's a good enough explanation for you. Does that make sense? --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 02:06, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The response saying they take news from IMDb is because they report everything. Thus, if IMDb says it, they'll report it – probably with an additional statement noting its verifiability. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 02:37, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

That's okay – not to worry. I was a bit confused when I saw the "diff" of the anon's edits too. One thing though, about using the warning templates. Suppose I really had removed the "in" – whether by mistake or because I thought it didn't belong or who knows what. Since you know me, and I am not a new editor nor am I an anonymous editor, my personal feeling is not to use the warning templates. In my opinion, they're just for a newly registered user who doesn't know what they're doing, and primarily for IP editors. It feels very impersonal to read a form note to you, especially when you know the user. (This is why I was a bit annoyed with ForestH2 a couple weeks ago when he wrote me a standard note, concluding with "Happy Editing!" when I forgot to sign a post using the four tildes – as if he didn't know me and as if I didn't know to use them.) So, if I did do something like that, instead of relying on the templates, just leave a brief note saying that you reverted my edit, and you are confused why I would do such a thing as that. Just a little personal tip about formality on Wikipedia. I hope you understand. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 03:16, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Hehe… too many reverts! Ahh!! :-) Thanks for that though – I got sidetracked writing the above note. Now I'm off to disambiguate links that point to Dawlish (Auror). --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 03:21, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Whatever… Leaky's good in general, I wouldn't bother too much about it anymore. Basically, don't go by lists that are rather apparently unsourced. Go by direct news articles. --Fbv65 e del / &#9745;t / &#9755;c || 03:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't appreciate the bad support
I see you haven't been here too long, and you have a history of revertin things and going too hard on things. Calm down, take a chill pill, and have fun with it. I'm tring to help jsut as much as the next guy, don't need to jump on me for trying to organize a project. I'm not a vandal talking all the credit! I'm just a user. So calm down, and help me on what I'm saying.Julz
 * What? Now your reverting my edits out of bad taste? Just add one of those little, please sign your name captions. Don't go beserk and delete everything!No need to stalk me dude, I might have to take this to a higher athuority if your gonna act so un-Wikipedian.Julz
 * Sorry I keep bothering you,but just one reminder I stumbled upon looking at the archives of the WP:SBSP somebody reminded us about the rules and said that our project has people blanking talk pages like you did. So,just a warning.

Also, an off-topic thing I thought I'd mention, as I ran into this on some talk pages: You should not blank talk pages that others have posted on, unless the addition is clearly vandalism (i.e. random obscenities, or gibberish such as "adfwealgf"). Even if the discussion is no longer relevant, it should be preserved for the record. Ral315 (talk) 03:02, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

I don't mean this offensivley at ANY way, it's cool. Julz


 * BTW, the above is a quote of something Ral315 wrote, not Wizkid trying to imitate him. It's not that clear from Wizkid's message, but he's mentioning a "reminder I stumbled upon"... Mango juice talk 03:28, 22 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Oh, and BTW, about your question? Userboxes are thoser little things on your user page. So go to the Userbox directory and go to the WikiProject section, its the SoingeBob one. If we're getting enough people and can make progress, a newsletter can help spread word with bigger crowds. Posting info that there is a WikiProject existing is no reason to blank things. Happy Sponging! Julz


 * In response to your messages on my page, it's cool. But as a tip, don't blank things unless they're bad and vandalism, I've noticed a lot of people are complaining about you blanking their edits, but happy Wikiing Julz 18:22, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

FYI,you still need the userbox, under About Treebark, those are userboxes Julz
 * K,it's on.Julz

Kindly clear something up for me, please.
Just wanted to know why you sent me a message saying that I wrote nonsense, considered 'vandalism', on the Harry Potter and Prisoner of Azkaban (film) page? It was the section about romantic tensions between Ron and Hermione. I looked up what constitutes vandalism on Wiki and what I wrote was most certainly not. It wasn't even nonsense, as the scene I referenced actually appears in the film. If it was mistaken information on my part (which I am fairly certain it wasn't) it still isn't vandalism, as I wrote it in good faith. I politely suggest you go read up on the vandalism information page, before sending a warning to an innocent Wikipedia user again. Miss Susan 06:09, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Actually, yes you did. I only just created an account so I could ask you why you sent me a vandalism warning. Because I didn't have an account before, you sent it to my IP address, and that is probably why you don't remember sending it. However, it definitely came from you.

Signpost
Please rest assured that I have it covered. Also, would you mind cleaning up Wikipedia Signpost/2006-07-24/In the news? Currently, the quality isn't up to our standards, and we usually don't give that much coverage to a relatively minor news story like that one, which has few implications. Finally, could I request that you and others don't start any new features or articles without express consent from either Michael Snow or Ral315? Thank you. Flcelloguy (A note? ) 23:34, 22 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not too sure what you're referring to. What I said above was that any special features or stories that you plan to do, such as your idea on reports on other language Wikipedias, should be approved by either Ral or Michael first. We always appreciate the contributions, but you really need to get consent from one of them to make sure that the story is appropriate. Otherwise, it may not be published. Thanks. Flcelloguy (A note? ) 14:36, 23 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Nothing is approved until either Michael, the editor-in-chief, or Ral, the acting editor-in-chief, expressedly and explicitly say okay and publish it themselves. Two or three people saying that they like the idea on the tip-line does not "approve" anything. The idea may very well be a good one, but until either Michael or Ral approve and publish it with the issue, it's not going anywhere. Please give both of them a break as well; both are extremely busy, and Michael has a lot of other Wikimedia obligations to take care of at the moment. Flooding their talk pages with messages won't help at all. Flcelloguy (A note? ) 16:01, 23 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Let's wait on the language report for this week. But don't move the article for now.  Ral315 (talk) 03:57, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It's been cleaned up significantly; if Michael wants to publish it, that's fine. I want to emphasize, however, that this probably won't be a weekly feature, however; it is interesting to look at other wikis, but not every week.  I'd like to emphasize more non-feature stories like Michael's weekly stories; that way, we cover what's important for the week, not just statistics and information easily gleaned from other pages.

 * Let's do it worry about it on a week-to-week basis. Our primary focus should be the English Wikipedia, always.  Ral315 (talk) 21:32, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Changed my comment there, which was a bit misleading. Basically, we'll worry about it in a few weeks; I see no reason to worry about it today.  Ral315 (talk) 21:35, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Not really; I don't see any reason to give it a mention. We don't mention Wikiprojects on our own site, let alone Simple.  Ral315 (talk) 21:36, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I plan to continue the tech report. I'm going to eat dinner right now, so I'll be away for a while; I guess my message is that this all can be hashed out later.  I'm not planning massive changes; I'm just saying, 7 weekly reports and two articles on average every week isn't right.  Ral315 (talk) 21:38, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
